Amelia hit her own forehead hearing Rian. Rowan wanted to smack Rian's head.

Alan felt relaxed after hearing Rian.

​​

Rian crossed his arms and eyed Aria, "Prince stealing our goddess is good. What do you think Little devil?"

Aria's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Rian continued, "You can only be tamed by him. Why don't you give it a try? Offer your mansion as dowry, he may agree to you."

Amelia and Rowan's smile was wide waiting for Aria's response.

Alan kept his straight face to others as if he wasn't interested in the conversation and he wasn't 'the Prince' Rian said about. But in reality, he was eager than anyone of them.

Aria forced a smile before finding how to respond. "Beauty Rian! Are you selling off your brother for my mansion? So that's the price of your brother... On his next date, I will ask the girl to buy him a mansion..."

Everyone's face turned to pitch dark.

Aria who was looking at Rian thought he wants her response, "Anyway, why will I marry a misogynist? I don't have suicidal thoughts yet."

Rian burst into laughter and patted Alan, "Bro, you will die single."

Amelia and Rowan looked at the two sons in disappointment. Both got up and left for their rooms.

The confused Aria joked scratching her head, "Don't worry, I will sell him off at a good price."

Rian continued laughing as he went upstairs. Amelia and Rowan just gave her a faint smile.

Alan and Aria were still at the table. The latter apologized, "Young Master Morgan, don't take it to the heart. We were kidding. And sorry, I was too straightforward."

Alan's face was indecipherable.

Aria got up and went to her room. She wasn't sleepy hence she was watching television in her room leaning on the headrest when she heard a knock on the door.

Aria thought as the housekeeper but Alan leaned on the door frame looking at her. He wasn't ready to let her think about him as she wants.

Aria spoke as she got down from the bed and went towards him, "Young master, is there anything you want to talk about?" She thought there was something about the company or case that he went to meet her.

Alan pushed the door close and went towards her, "Right, I have to open your little head today."

"Huh?" Aria couldn't understand and saw him taking steps near her instead of standing and talking.

She started to take steps back and frowned, "Why are you coming near me?"

She was about to fall on the day bed, Alan wrapped his hand around her waist making her jump in fright, "What the hell are you doing?"

Anyhow before she could react more, Alan had pulled her to his arms and pinned her to the bay window holding her hands in place.

Aria was hell scared of being cornered. His faint smile reminded her of an evil grin of a CEO. "Did you perhaps forgot to take your medicines? Are you drunk? Why are doing this? Young master Morgan, Leave me now. Do you even know what you are..."

Aria froze.

She could feel her heart thumping rapidly. His slender finger was placed on her lips to stop her from talking.

She gulped looking at his eyes. She could make out the changes in gaze from past to now. There was a tinge of wickedness and lots of affection in his eyes. She felt like his eyes were smiling looking at her.

Her body looked tiny against his slender muscular body. That was the first time she was being so close to a man physically. She wasn't sure what to do and what he was up to.

She moved her head a little aside to escape from his touch on her lips. She tried to reason but her voice had turned too soft giving him ripples of reaction to do something to her.

"Young master Morgan, you... you aren't here to take revenge on me for whatever I said at the dining table. You aren't petty, right? Can you leave me? You shouldn't do all this."

Alan pulled her to him and spoke near her ear seductively and unhurriedly, "I'm that petty. I and Rian aren't your brother and did you say I'm a misogynist?"

He rubbed his nose on her ear which made her trembling lightly when his chin stroked her neck. He could feel her hot breath on his neck as she tried to calm her rapidly beating heart.

Since she was pressed to him, he knew the struggles of her due to fright and he knew how his body reacting for the first time in his life.

For not to scare her more, he decided to leave soon. "Am I not talking to you well? I am no misogynist. I just don't like to talk with others."

He moved his head away and saw her glaring at him. His lips subconsciously tilted up and Aria burst out.

"You! Psycho President. You can tell that normally. Let me go."

Aria widened her eyes in shock from his next move. She could see his long lashes cast a shadow on his skin. His skin looked clean and fair. His brows were arced beautifully as he intently sucked her lower lip.

Alan wanted to tease her but it made him difficult to leave her soft lip which was sweet. He longed to go on and kiss her.

His one hand was subconsciously held near her neck holding her chin up with the thumb. His longing for moving his hand on her and deepening the kiss was intensifying rapidly.

He never thought such a simple thing could make him hooked and could give him an urge to continue.

That was his first kiss stealing Aria's first kiss without her permission.

With great endurance, he left her lower lip which had turned deliciously red. He wanted to do the same to the upper lip looking at it.

Aria ordered holding her tears due to pain from the lips. He had sucked too hard. "President Morgan! You have crossed your line. Let me go."

But she again froze. Alan took her upper lip between his lips. He gently caressed and sucked for a long time than the lower lip before unwillingly leave her.

He had controlled himself to kiss her deeply other than tasting her lips. He wanted to continue only when she becomes his.

"Alan Morgan! You jerk. I thought you were a good man. How can you do this to me?"

Alan smiled hearing his name which made her even more confused.
